Just do like everybody else! Find pictures of what you want and go thru the bmp file and replace the ones you want!

Got it in NW metro Atlanta - hey y'all!!!!!!!!

Please delete this topic, I found the answer thru "search"

CMBO could be minimized in Windows using the [ESC] key during the orders phase ; is this possible in CMBB? I tried the [ESC] key with nothing happening and both the hotkeys and manual have no information on this! Thanks :confused:

North Cobb County checkin' in I work in Marietta but live near Acworth

IIRC the M3 "Grease Gun" was a weapon mainly for AFV crews for personal defense. IMHO there would be no need to model it because any AFV crew bailing out of their damaged vehicle would not take the time to grab the M3! Once outside the vehicle their only weapon would be the .45 pistol. IMHO I really don't think the M3 was issued to any infantrymen (special units, maybe). But that's all just my .02-cents worth

Or a p/o spouse or girlfriend he has neglected to play CMBO!!

Thanks for the info; I kind of figured that out last night I need it on two drives, because on the C drive will be CMBO and on the D drive will be the new Desert Fox/Desert Rats game mod! So, I want my cake and eat it too

I want to install CMBO on both my C and D drive, but setup only recognizes the C drive! How do I install it to the D drive if it is already installed on my C drive?

Thanks Pak40 for your tips - I had the same question for both towed AT guns and towed howitzers.

Personally, when I don't recieve an e-mailed turn after a while (3 days - week), I re-e-mail the last turn I sent and state "in cause I forgot to send this..." Usually I will get a response and turn within a day or two. But I still get 1 or 2 people who just give up and disappear from the face of the virtual earth ;(

Oops, I did a search - but only under CM ;( Moderator, Please delete this post!!

I downloaded Talonsofts' teaser for their upcoming game "G.I. Combat" and it looks a lot like a CM clone! There is too little data available to answer any questions about scale, time period (other than it is WW2), etc. But based on what the teaser shows, there seems to be individual vehicles and soldiers with a windows-type pull down orders/action menu.

You keep this up, Steve and company will abandon CM3 saying that you have done it for them. That way they just get started on CM4 after they're done with CM2 Personally, I was going to install it to a different HD altogether! Keep up the good work!!

Where can these mods be gotten?

You don't need Lee/Grants, if you playing the late end of the N. African Campaign. And you won't have open desert either - just rocky mountainous terrain! Now I will have to have a 2nd installation of CM just to play this mod! Bring it on!!

You bet!! I am taping both It will be real interesting to hear real Sherman tankers tell how they beat the crap out of Tigers and Panthers

Yes, it is a matter of points and realism! Nobody in his right mind is gonna try to run with a heavy a** .50 cal MG! If you have ever seen photos depicting a retreating army, all you see is abandoned equipment that was deemed too dang heavy to take (ie. equipment value is not a concern)!

"WITHDRAW" will only retreat at your unit's fastest speed; which for crew served weapons is "MOVE". It is as if the last man alive in the crew is still trying to carry that dang MG or mortar or whatever!

Steve, Will you please look into adding an "abandon" hot key in the next patch? Why, you ask? Well, (based on PBEM games) if my MG crew is being overwhelmed by the enemy, they are forced to only "MOVE"; whereas the enemy infantry has "RUN"! In real life, if given the choice between trying to run with either the .50 or any MG versus running without - which would you choose? Therefore, the "ABANDON" command who have the crew abandon their crew served weapon and make a run for it. This command would also be implemented for AFV crews also. Nothing worse than having most of your force retreating (charging really fast in the opposite direction) and your crew of an immobilized AFV staying behind!

The Clans did not ruin Battletech - they enhanced it Long live Clan Nova Cat!!!

you might have better luck by restarting your computer in "safe mode" and then running scandisk followed by defrag.

Before I e-mail you anything, you need to set your conditions, i.e. side you prefer, date, points, etc. therontmoore@yahoo.com

Yes, it is true that there are heroes and cowards in all races. In the WWII magazine article that I read about the SS murdering the Black artillerymen, the artillerymen surrendered without a fight even though they were in a stone farmhouse facing less than a dozen SS troopers. But many accounts of cowardice are base on officers unfit to lead, willing to surrender than fight it out! In another issue of WWII magazine, a Sgt. slugged a Lt. for surrendering to the Germans without a fight during the Battle of the Bulge (this was an all-white unit)! In the Italian campaign, the all-black 92nd Infantry was poorly led! The US Army felt it was better for the 92nd to be led by White Southerners (who for the most part were very racist), which led to a large mistrust between the troops and their officers! The troops more trusted their few Black officers (i.e. Vernon Baker - awarded the Medal of Honor)than the racist White officers who resented their assignment to the 92nd.
